Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!-Chapter 598: Traitor
A while ago,
Song Liu watched as the battle unfolded without showing any intentions of helping. From time to time, one of the stray beasts would come towards her, but for some reason, when they got close to her, they would change their target and ignore her.
Although this discovery puzzled her a little, she did not care too much about it and looked at Shisan and the rest, her thoughts unknown to anyone but herself.
Woosh!
Just when she was lost in her thoughts, a figure appeared beside her. Only when the figure was beside her did the young woman take notice of it, and no one else seemed to be able to see this figure.
Song Liu's body tensed from the sudden appearance of the figure, but when she saw the figure clearly, she relaxed.
Cloaked in black robes that covered the man from head to toe, he immediately knelt before her on one knee. On the back of his robes was the image of a blazing sun, barely visible to the naked eye unless one looked carefully.
Song Liu frowned, seeing his actions, but did not say anything.
"Young Miss, we are here to take you away." As if seeing through her doubts, the man explained. "We will explain the whole situation to you once we leave this continent, but before doing that, I would have to confirm your identity."
"I am already a devotee of the lord, so what is there to confirm?" Song Liu finally opened her mouth to express her doubts with a dissatisfied look on her face.
"Many unnatural things have happened here, so we cannot take our chances." The only captain under Amon spoke as he glanced towards Ming Ye and Noah from the corner of his eyes.
Seeing her frown easing, the man took out a device that looked like a transparent screen, which showed nothing but a single button.
As soon as he pressed the button, the screen glowed with green color. "Everything is good. I am sorry for the inconvenience, Young Miss. Your identity in our cause has turned very special, which is why we don't have room for mistakes."
Song Liu nodded before turning back towards the battlefield. "Why can no one see you?"
"That is because of my artifact. It can help me hide in plain sight. Unless someone looks for me deliberately with their soul sense, they cannot discover me in this state—" Without any hesitation, the captain started explaining everything to Song Liu, but suddenly, in the middle of his words, the man paused.
"What happened?" Sensing the shift in the man's mood, Song Liu couldn't help but ask.
"Things are not going as we planned. We have to change our plans. I will have to ask Miss to create a distraction for us to get out of this place." He turned to look at Shisan, killing the group of their members from their side.
"What do you suggest?" Song Liu did not show any signs of displeasure and even showed a bit of eagerness to help.
"You have to seriously injure one of those kids, which can take their attention away from the general while I will handle the rest."
"Them?" Song Liu looked at Ruo'er and the rest as a frown appeared on her face. Seeing the frown, the captain paused, but her next words caused his tense body to relax.
"I have a better plan. I will take out one of their elders."
Just when she thought the man would accept her idea, she saw him shaking his head. "Killing someone might make them act more aggressively while chasing after us."
"…Leave it to me." Song Liu paused for a while before replying calmly, her eyes flashing with a cold light. Without saying anything else, the man disappeared from the area once more, leaving Song Liu alone.
"Wait here, kids. I will go help Elder Ming—" Glancing at Shisan, who had killed the rest of the cult members, she took out the zither from her storage ring and pulled the string without holding back.
Splash!
Before Shisan could even take a step forward, a blade was conjured from Song Liu's zither, which rushed towards the woman without creating any sound. The slash was not that fast, but Shisan was unprepared to face an attack from her side and got hit.
A huge slash mark appeared on her left-hand side. Her left arm, severed, dropped to the ground, leaving her bones exposed to the air.
Shisan turned to face her attacker, and her eyes moistened when she saw the person was her Young Miss.
"Young Miss—" Her eyes shook, causing the tears to fall down as strength escaped her grasp. The last thing she saw was a familiar zither in the hands of the young woman she had vowed to serve for the rest of her life.
"Elder Shisan!!!" The whole sect was plunged into sorrow when Shisan fell. Ma Li bellowed in rage and lunged towards Song Liu with her fist glowing and her aura blazing with murderous intent!
"You traitor, die!!" As she screamed, Ma Li's fist arrived right before Song Liu's face.
"No! Back away, little girl!" Ming Ye shouted from a distance as he sensed something. He hurriedly tried to kill the people surrounding him, but the numbers were in tens.
There were more than twenty Golden Core Realm cultivators that were trying to hold him with their lives, as killing him would be even out of their dreams.
Ma Li was only a foot away from Song Liu, so she did not react in time, but her fist kept moving forward.
Yet… the fist never connected.
The air around Song Liu suddenly started to burn. It burned so much that even the space shattered before an ethereal being appeared behind Song Liu.
…
High up in the sky, Noah faced Amon with a solemn look on his face. Standing between them was the same cloaked man who had been beside Song Liu a while ago.

"You must be wondering why I am letting them die like that, right?" Amon asked as he looked at the dead bodies of all of his subordinates.
